Just a peice of paper

Imagine the world without any money. Not a dollar or cent. At first it seems a bit insane, but if you think MORE into it, it makes sense. All the debt in the world (which is 17.5 trillion) would just disappear. As individuals, we will gain complete economic freedom. In return, a way of life without money demands only that we, as individuals, do the work we love to do. It is a win/win situation.

Everyone would work for free in a “no money world.” However working, and not getting anything in return is pretty whack, but everyone would have to work to keep the society running properly. For example; farmers would still have to keep growing and distributing food to stores, store clerks would still have to check the food to make sure it’s not spoiled, the cashier would still need to keep scanning the products and so on and so forth. People would still need to work at the movies, breweries, restaurants, clothing stores, etc. etc. to keep everything in order. People would go to work because they NEEDED to not because they have to.

Without any money, the world would have no issues. No money issues, no economic issues, no class, issues, no debt issues. A world without issues is a world where everyone can get along, because people would no longer have a weight on their shoulder from their economic debt. When people have no issues, people have no problems.

We Americans love our freedom; yet, we have allowed the use of money to completely dominate our way of life. Indeed, we are no longer a free people. We are 7.4 trillion dollars in debt. We live in fear of depression, inflation, inadequate medical coverage and losing our jobs. Our freedom is at stake if not our very survival. Yet, we put our collective heads in the sand.

Yes, there is something we can do. We can look into ourselves for an answer. We may find that we have the strength to carry out our internal economic affairs without the need to use money. Yes, we will still need to use money when dealing with other countries.

There is no question that a way of life without money will alleviate if not completely eliminate all of the previously mentioned problems. Yet, we scoff at the idea. We are totally convinced that money is a necessity. We cannot imagine life without money. Perhaps the time has come to think otherwise. It is completely obvious our present economy no longer satisfies our present day needs.

Can we learn to distribute our goods and services according to need (on an ongoing basis) rather than by the ability to pay? Why not? Poverty and materialism will be eliminated! Our sense of value will change. Wealth will no longer be a status symbol. A man will be judged by what he is; not by what he has. He will be judged by his achievements, leadership, ideas, artistic abilities or athletic prowess; not by the size of his wallet. - By John Steinsvold

Yes, everything will be free according to need. All the necessities and common luxuries will be available on a help yourself basis at the local store. Surely, this country is capable of supplying the necessities and common luxuries for everyone in this country many times over.
